I take 1 or 2 benadryl 1hr before bedtime to help me sleep sometimes. A good nights rest certainly helps with anxiety the next day....
B vitamins can give you an energy boost, so I wouldn't take it at night. It may hinder sleep. I take mine around lunch with food. I take a B-150 complex....
I was started on 20mg about 2-3 months ago. I just started upping to 30mg this week, as it wasn't doing anything at 20. I haven't noticed any side effects, but my anxiety symptoms vary week to week...
Rebound anxiety can happen, and I've had it and not had it. Its worse for me the higher my anxiety and higher dose I take. I've also learned to tweak my doses. If my anxiety feels like it will take...
I had some palpitations for a couple of weeks a year or so ago. I was taking 3 Tylenol every 6 hrs for sinus headaches like I had for a few years. Came to find out acetametaphin can cause...
Prozac and other SSRI's are metabolised in the liver for one. If your liver is dealing with alcohol it is less effective at getting the Prozac into your system. You probably would have the same...
Update. Days have been a little better the past few. Usually, when I have a blowout, it does this and gets better over a weeks time until I feel mostly normal again. Saw my psychiatrist today. Upping...
Most is thought to be caused by chemical imbalances in your brain, which ultimately help the way your body responds to stress. Some anxiety/depression can be learned behaviors based on past...
For some, a stressful event may cause anxiety for a short period (<1yr). For most, I am afraid, your body/mind will have a tendency for anxiety for life. Through one or a combination of diet,...
The propranolol does have ER and standard. You could try switching to the standard and taking it just to get to sleep and ride out the days? I also have been using 1 or 2 benadryl to get to sleep...
I've had all sorts of symptoms like everyone else. I am 33. I have had the dizzyness, I even have had where my eyes would "wobble" side to side when looking at a computer screen. As I type, I feel...
If you are cutting an ER type med, it loses the ER effect and can yo-yo the effect it's supposed to have. There is an extended release propranolol, I take 80mg. There is also the standard, which can...
It's possible to up the dosage of Paxil and see if it subsides. Paxil comes in 30 and 40mg. I took 20 for a few years and then got upped to 30 due to mine creeping back. About 10-11 yrs total. Paxil...
Sounds like you need a new psychiatrist if thats what they are saying. Some of the time, it can be in your head if its triggered by events (close, crowded spaces, riding on planes), but even then, it...
It's not uncommon for some to have depression and anxiety. Some get depressed from having long term anxiety. Both are thought to be caused by the same thing, low serotonin. Most anti depressants are...
I take the Beta-blocker(Propranolol) and the antidepressant (Celexa) DAILY. The xanax is as needed which may be none, once a day, or 3-4x a day depending on the anxiety levels. Once my Paxil and...
I had the hardest time accepting to take medication at first. I thought it meant I was weak, or that I would be a zombie or in some fog all of the time. I thought of it as "mind control" drugs. If...
I remember having panic attacks as young as 12-13 maybe. I only had 1-3 between then and around 21 when mine "blossomed". It was 2001. Mine started on a trip to the beach. Started freaking out in a...
I don't know how young you are, but I remember having panic attacks as young as 12-13 maybe. I only had 1-3 between then and around 21 when mine "blossomed". I found if I was alone when one started,...
I was on Paxil for about 10 years. I took 20mg with 75mg Effexor and then upped to 30mg Paxil along the way. It stopped my Panic Attacks pretty good within a few weeks, but still had mild anxiety....
It works differently for me at different times. I just got off of Effexor and Paxil about 3-4 months ago due to poop-out. I am now trying Citalopram (Celexa). I have had the Xanax for about 9 months...
I get the hot burning sensations all over, mainly neck, chest and arms during my worst panic attacks. I'll start sweating and getting HOT. Then, as it subsides, I can start to get cold from the sweat...
